We would like to thank businesses that are complying with the Water By-law No. 2006-122 and doing their part to help protect Kingston’s water supply. The Utilities Kingston Cross Connection Control Program is in effect and addresses actual or potential connections between the City’s water infrastructure and a source of pollution or contamination that could change the quality of water in the drinking water supply.

Business owners can visit our newly expanded Cross Connection Control Program pages and learn about the installation, maintenance, and testing of approved backflow prevention devices. When properly installed, these devices ensure that water will never flow from the customer’s facilities into the distribution system.
